Chapter 719: Used to Sleeping Like This

The weekend—after five days of high-intensity work, Cai Xiaotang finally ushered in a rare day off.

Discovering early in the morning that she was once again sleeping in someone's arms, Cai Xiaotang was stunned for a moment, but immediately climbed out without changing her expression, quickly tidying up her clothes.

Humans are truly terrifying.

In just these few short days, she had clearly already grown accustomed to this kind of scene!

Cai Xiaotang grumbled to herself, intending to sneak out of bed.

Li Xiao, however, was woken up by her movements and slowly opened his eyes.

Thinking of how he couldn't help but "bully" someone again last night, his eyes instantly turned somewhat deep.

"Want to run?"

Li Xiao looked with amusement at the person intending to slip away.

Cai Xiaotang's movements stiffened, and when she turned back, her face had already returned to normal.

"What do I have to run from? I'm just getting up as usual."

As she spoke, she had already wrapped her clothes tight and gotten out of bed.

Li Xiao chuckled: "Last night, it seems you took advantage of me again..."

Cai Xiaotang's footsteps paused; she knew he wouldn't let this opportunity to tease her pass, and she immediately rolled her eyes at the air in annoyance.

Pfft... did he really think she would fall for it every time?

Having lived together for so many days, she was no longer the same Cai Xiaotang she used to be!

It was just a contest of who had the thicker skin!

Cai Xiaotang turned around abruptly and flashed a disdainful smile at Li Xiao: "Who took advantage of whom? You say it as if you weren't holding me last night; this sort of thing is mutual, we're even, and it's not bad enough that I didn't complain that your physique was uncomfortable to hold!"

She tossed out the sentence and, using her hair to cover her burning ears, turned and left.

Li Xiao subconsciously lowered his gaze to look at himself, raising an eyebrow noncommittally.

His physique was bad?

No matter, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future to let her "carefully" see whether his physique was good or not...

After eating breakfast, Cai Xiaotang chatted with Li Laoyezi for a while, then sent the old man back to his room to rest, and didn't know what to do.

She was afraid of running into Li Xiao if she returned to the bedroom, and Jiang Baobao wasn't around; just as she was wondering what to do, she suddenly heard her phone ring.

Cai Xiaotang grabbed it casually and was somewhat surprised the moment she saw the number.

"Hello? Little Uncle? Why are you looking for me all of a sudden?"

Not expecting Jiang Chenghao to call her, Cai Xiaotang was a bit surprised.

"Xiao Tang, have you returned from abroad? I just spoke with Baobao on the phone; she said there was nothing wrong, but she didn't tell me in detail, only saying she was on vacation. What about you? Have you returned to the country?"

Jiang Chenghao asked straight to the point.

"I've already returned."

Cai Xiaotang answered hurriedly.

"That's good... as long as you are all fine."

Hearing this, Jiang Chenghao relaxed a little, then continued: "Then when are you free? Is it convenient to meet? Regarding this incident, Baobao doesn't want to say much, and I didn't ask too much, but as her family, I want to know what happened, in case something like this happens again..."

Jiang Chenghao did not continue.

He had always been concerned about Jiang Baobao and the three little ones.

But Jiang Baobao's state during that time was truly too poor, and he didn't dare to disturb her too much, so he could only wait silently.

Cai Xiaotang pondered for two seconds upon hearing this, thinking she could take this opportunity to go out for some air, and agreed: "I have time. Shall we meet in a bit? You pick the location?"

"Alright, I'll send it to you in a moment."

Jiang Chenghao replied.

Hanging up the phone, Cai Xiaotang immediately sprang up and quickly tidied herself up.

Li Xiao seemed to be busy with something in the study, so Cai Xiaotang didn't let anyone disturb him and left the villa alone.

Then, she soon received Jiang Chenghao's message and arrived at the agreed-upon location.

The place Jiang Chenghao chose was a cafe located in the business district.

Although it had just snowed, the weather wasn't too cold, so the two simply sat at an outdoor table.

"What exactly happened? How could that kind of accident happen that day?"

As soon as she sat down, Jiang Chenghao asked straight to the point.

An explosion at a wedding venue could simply be called a terrorist attack!

"Little Uncle, it's like this..."

Cai Xiaotang had already thought about how to fabricate the story on the way over, just as she had explained to Liu Xin'ai, saying it was because of reasons related to Li Beijue's work.

Only this time, she polished quite a few details, making it sound completely unquestionable.

At the end, she didn't forget to add: "Little Uncle, you must not tell Baobao that I told you."

"Alright."

Jiang Chenghao naturally agreed, and thinking of the worry he had felt during this time, he finally let out a complete sigh of relief.

He then asked: "Then what are their plans for the future? The wedding... will it be held again?"

"Of course it will!"

Cai Xiaotang nodded heavily: "I don't know much about Li Beijue's side, but... once he resolves everything, he will definitely give Baobao a perfect wedding!"

Perhaps she had spoken a bit too loudly.

As soon as her voice fell, two people walking out of a shop not far away subconsciously looked over, happening to face Jiang Chenghao's direction.

Jiang Chenghao's gaze froze, his eyes looking straight past Cai Xiaotang.

Cai Xiaotang also sensed something and instinctively turned her head back.

Immediately, she saw Liu Qingze and Liu Xin'ai standing not far away.

"Xinaijie?"

Cai Xiaotang was somewhat surprised.

As soon as the words left her mouth, she saw Jiang Chenghao stand up abruptly!

"Xin'ai."

Jiang Chenghao walked over in what was almost three steps taken as two.

Ever since they parted ways last time, he had not seen Liu Xin'ai again.

"Cheng Hao."

Liu Xin'ai nodded faintly, forcibly suppressing the emotions churning in the depths of her eyes.

Cai Xiaotang also followed over, instinctively exchanging a glance with Liu Qingze, who was by Liu Xin'ai's side.

What kind of situation was this?

It seemed... a bit awkward...

"Sister, what are you doing here?"

Liu Qingze was the first to break the silence.

"I..."

"Xin'ai, it's rare that we've run into each other; I would like to speak with you alone for a few moments, is that alright?"

Jiang Chenghao interrupted Cai Xiaotang's response, his gaze fixed straight onto Liu Xin'ai.

Cai Xiaotang's expression immediately became even more subtle, as she thought of the scene at Liu Xin'ai's wedding.

The uncle is just too devoted...

To think he still hasn't let go of Xinaijie even now!

So... should she be tactful and slip away, or should she say something?

Just as Cai Xiaotang was thinking this, she suddenly felt her arm being pulled hard.

"You two catch up, we'll go wander around."

Liu Qingze dragged Cai Xiaotang by the arm and walked away in the opposite direction without looking back.

Cai Xiaotang instinctively followed his pace, and after walking half a meter, she suddenly realized something and looked back with concern.

"Hey, sister, you wouldn't be so lacking in social awareness, would you?"

Liu Qingze's annoying voice sounded from above her head.

Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang withdrew her gaze and looked at Liu Qingze with some suspicion: "You don't happen to not know who the person next to me just now was, do you?"

"I know, my sister's ex-boyfriend."

Liu Qingze raised an eyebrow, looking completely calm.
